yeah, roman history is awesome. I have a soft spot in my heart for the stuff they make up in the historia augusta.

Maximinus Thrax was eight feet tall and could pull a loaded ox-cart unaided!

Claudius Gothicus had eyes that burned a fiery red and could knock out the teeth of any man or beast with a single blow!

I read it in the historia, so it must be true
